Abstract: The present invention provides an improved lock water purifier and method. In a presently preferred embodiment a floating salt housing is provided to produce a high salt concentration salt brine within the salt housing. A plurality of metallic probes are removably positioned within the salt housing. The metallic probes are preferably not connected to a power source but rather react within the salt brine to produce metallic ions. A channel is provided whereby the metallic ions can flow into the body of water. The number of metallic probes can be controlled to thereby control the amount of metallic ions produced. As well, moveable gates can be utilized to control the flow of metallic ions into the body of water. In a preferred embodiment, a chlorine generator is also provided which comprises a power source, preferably a solar power source, which supplies power to a plurality of cell plates. The powered cell plates react with the salt brine to produce chlorine atoms that are channeled into the body of water with the metallic ions. In a preferred embodiment, the apparatus a floating device however it does not have to be.

Abstract translation: 本发明提供了一种改进的锁水净化器和方法。 在目前优选的实施方案中，提供浮盐壳以在盐壳体内产生高盐浓度的盐盐水。 多个金属探针可移除地定位在盐壳内。 金属探针优选不连接到电源，而是在盐水中进行反应以产生金属离子。 提供通道，由此金属离子可以流入水体。 可以控制金属探针的数量，从而控制产生的金属离子的量。 同样可以使用可移动的门来控制金属离子进入水体的流动。 在优选实施例中，还提供了氯发生器，其包括向多个单元板供电的电源，优选为太阳能发电源。 动力的细胞板与盐盐水反应产生氯原子，其被金属离子引入水体内。 在优选实施例中，该装置是浮动装置，但不一定是浮动装置。
